Ender 3 LED Light Bar

thingiverse

This is a 200mm wide LED light bar designed for the Ender 3, utilizing a 24V LED strip and a 24V toggle switch connected to a 24V power supply. I submitted this without a photo because I was redesigning the mount and haven't installed it yet. Note: The LED's generate significant heat, so I incorporated heat sinks to help dissipate this heat. I splurged on a high-end toggle switch for its appearance, but a more affordable option is likely available as long as it can handle the electrical load. Two strips of 5mm wide adhesive thermal tape were used for the 10mm wide LED strip and heat-sinks due to poor adhesion from the LED strip's adhesive. There is some electrical wiring and soldering involved, so proceed at your own risk; I am not responsible for any errors or hazards caused by incorrect or inadequate wiring. A Mean Well 350-24 power supply is used with this design. Some parts are small and delicate, requiring finesse and patience to construct. The sequence of assembly can be adjusted according to personal preference.
